How long will Snitker let this go on today?

Why would we go all out with the pen to try to win this game knowing we may/probably have to play two tomorrow and have the playoffs right on top of that? At some point the offense has got to carry the day against a worse pitcher.

I really hope going Morton today reinforces that there is no chance we do something stupid in thinking his "experience" puts him ahead of SS in the rotation.

My take on this was simply we want to have SS available for the 1st round and take our chances on winning today without needing him. If SS goes today vs. tomorrow either way he isn't available for the WC round - so there is really nothing you gain by pitching Shelly a day earlier. Whereas you potentially gained not needing to pitch SS(with Morton going today), and thus having SS available in 1st round as needed.

Either way, even if SS is used tomorrow, he still would be on regular rest to start an NLDS game one. We just lose the option of him being available in a WC game three all hands on deck.
 
I love seeing us being aggressive this weekend and running more … but with Ozuna up there, I mighta’ not tried that… even if it does like the pitcher looks due for a wild pitch

Ozuna wasn't going to do anything....he's been trying to hit the ball out of the park all weekend and has been sh*t
